WORK HISTORY
Head of Contract Solutions Cloud-native Data Engineering (Uk & Eu) @Set2Recruit
Set2Recruit | Contract Data & PlatformsI lead the Contract Data Engineering division at Set2Recruit, specialising exclusively in cloud-native data engineers and data platform specialists across the UK and EU.My focus sits at the intersection of Azure, AWS, Databricks, Fabric, Snowflake and dbt, supporting organisations as they build, modernise, and scale their data platforms — often at pace and under delivery pressure. I work primarily with contract-first engineers, but also support permanent hires where it makes sense for the business.Day to day, I stay close to the market - speaking continuously with hands-on data engineers, platform specialists and technical leads who are actively delivering modern data platforms. This allows me to give clients a realistic view of availability, rate trends, skills depth, and delivery risk, rather than just forwarding CVs.I’m particularly well aligned with:Cloud data platform build & migration programmesLakehouse / modern analytics stacksData platform stabilisation & scale-up phasesTeams preparing for AI, ML and advanced analytics adoptionSet2Recruit is a bespoke, B-Corp certified consultancy, which means we value long-term relationships, quality over volume, and doing things properly - whether that’s with clients or the engineers we represent.If you’re responsible for a data platform and want a clear view of the contract data market, even without an immediate hiring need, I’m always happy to connect and compare notes.UK & EU | Contract Data Engineering | Cloud Platforms
